IE8 issue with opacity and hover

microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general

Noticed buggy behavior with rendering in IE8 standards mode. From what I can
tell, it looks like when opacity filter is applied to a parent element,
a:hover styles for the child elements aren't getting applied properly.

Here's the html markup that can be used to reproduce the problem. In the
first example, items turn red on hover as expected. In the second example,
items don't turn red on hover (caused by opacity filter). Make sure you set
to IE8 standards mode.

filter: progidXImageTransform.Microsoft.Alpha(opacity=70 );
yes, this directive works, but it's generate an alert about trying to run
activex or something dangerous element.
Which user will allow that for see a transparent element on web site?!
